Description
本発明は、ワイパー装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a wiper device.
長年にわたり、車両用のウィンドガラスワイパー及びワイパーシステムにおいては、多くの改善があった。 Over the years, there have been many improvements in windshield wipers and wiper systems for vehicles.
主要な改善の一つは、例えば低温の気候、特に窓上に氷又は霜の堆積があるときにおけるウィンドガラスのような窓の拭き取りに関する。 One major improvement relates to wiping windows, such as windshields, for example in cold climates, especially when there is ice or frost accumulation on the windows.
ユーザが直ぐに可視性を取り戻すことができるようにするために、例えば、窓上の氷又は氷の結晶を直ぐに溶融するべく、ウィンドガラス用洗浄液を加熱することが提案されてきた。 In order to allow the user to immediately regain visibility, it has been proposed to heat the window glass cleaning liquid, for example, to quickly melt ice or ice crystals on the window.
このウィンドガラス用洗浄液は、その貯蔵タンク内で又はこれが流体配管を移動するのに応じて、加熱されてもよい。 The window glass cleaning liquid may be heated in the storage tank or as it moves through the fluid piping.
しかしながら、ウィンドガラス用洗浄液又はワイパーの周辺環境を加熱するべく、ウィンドガラス用洗浄液に直接的に接触する又はしない、例えば正温度係数（ＰＴＣ）セラミックス要素又は加熱抵抗器といった加熱装置をワイパー自体に設置することが賢明であると、判明され、これにより、ウィンドガラス用洗浄液が、窓上においてワイパーブレードの前方だけに噴霧されるようにワイパー自体に供給されるようになる。 However, heating devices such as positive temperature coefficient (PTC) ceramic elements or heating resistors are installed on the wiper itself, in order to heat the window glass cleaning solution or the surrounding environment of the wiper, either directly or not in contact with the window glass cleaning solution. It turns out that it is sensible to do so, so that the window glass cleaning liquid is supplied to the wiper itself so that it is sprayed on the window only in front of the wiper blade.
本出願人の名義でのＦＲ２ ９８７ ０１６は、例えば、車両の窓上にある雪、霜又は氷を溶融するための加熱要素、例えば放射型の加熱要素を設けられたワイパーブレードを示している。 FR2 987 016 in the name of the Applicant shows, for example, a wiper blade provided with a heating element, for example a radiant heating element, for melting snow, frost or ice on a vehicle window.
この場合、電気導電性ワイヤが、加熱要素への電力供給を可能とするために、ワイパーまで供給されなければならない。 In this case, an electrically conductive wire must be supplied to the wiper in order to be able to supply power to the heating element.
ワイパーをアームに機械的にだけでなく電気的に接続することに注意を払う追加的な必要性がある場合、ユーザにとって、損傷時のワイパーの交換が複雑であることは理解されるだろう。ある場合には、ユーザは電気的な接続を実施することを忘れるかもしれないし、また他の場合には、注意しなかったときに、電気コネクタの一部に水が浸入して故障が生じるかもしれない。 If there is an additional need to pay attention to electrically connecting the wiper to the arm as well as mechanically, it will be understood by the user that the replacement of the wiper upon damage is complex. In some cases, the user may forget to make an electrical connection, and in other cases, if care is not taken, water may enter some of the electrical connectors and cause a failure. unknown.
また、ワイパーアームとワイパーとの間のこの接続が全ての荒れた天候に晒された場合、ワイパーアームの側部上にあるコネクタの一部が、例えば腐食又は汚損によって劣化される虞があり、ワイパーによって支持される加熱要素への電力の供給が無効化される虞がある。 Also, if this connection between the wiper arm and the wiper is exposed to all the rough weather, some of the connectors on the side of the wiper arm may be degraded, for example by corrosion or fouling, There is a risk that the supply of power to the heating element supported by the wiper will be invalidated.
文献ＷＯ０８０２１９９１は、ウィンドガラスとワイパーとの間で誘導電気接続をなすことを提案している。 The document WO 08021991 proposes to make an inductive electrical connection between the windshield and the wiper.
この目的のために、磁気誘導によってワイパーを加熱するべく、送電コイルが、乗務員室の内側でウィンドガラスに取り付けられている。 For this purpose, a power transmission coil is attached to the windshield inside the crew compartment to heat the wiper by magnetic induction.
この提案は、ワイパーとワイパーアームとの間の機械的な接続の段階で、電気的な接続の問題を確実に阻止することを可能とするが、上述の文献にかかるシステムは、ウィンドガラスに取り付けられた送電コイルに向いているワイパーにて静止されたワイパー装置のみだけに機能するという点で、この提案は十分とはいえない。 Although this proposal makes it possible to reliably prevent electrical connection problems at the stage of mechanical connection between the wiper and the wiper arm, the system according to the above-mentioned document is attached to the windshield. This proposal is not sufficient in that it only works for wiper devices that are stationary with the wiper facing the power transmission coil.
この更なる結果は、ウィンドガラスワイパーが作動しているときには、洗浄液は加熱され得ないということである。 A further consequence of this is that the cleaning liquid cannot be heated when the windscreen wiper is operating.
その上、規格の存在により、運転者の視角を遮ることなく、ウィンドガラス、特にその周縁部でさえ、要素を配置することは困難である。 Moreover, due to the presence of standards, it is difficult to place elements on the windshield, especially even at the periphery, without obstructing the driver's viewing angle.
本発明は、ワイパー装置が作動しているときであっても、効果的な電気的接続を可能とする提案を提供することによって、先に言及した欠点を少なくとも一部で改善することを提案し、ワイパーの交換のために、ワイパーの容易な取り外しを可能とする。 The present invention proposes to remedy at least in part the drawbacks mentioned above by providing a proposal that allows an effective electrical connection even when the wiper device is in operation. For easy wiper replacement, the wiper can be easily removed.

したがって、電気的な接続は、ワイパーアームとワイパーとの間の機械的な接続がなされた際に、ユーザにとって透明な態様でなされ得る。 Thus, the electrical connection can be made in a manner that is transparent to the user when a mechanical connection is made between the wiper arm and the wiper.

他の利点及び特徴は、本発明の詳細な説明に基づき及び添付の図面から明らかとなり得る。 Other advantages and features may be apparent from the detailed description of the invention and from the accompanying drawings.
図面において、同じ要素には、同じ参照符号が示されている。 In the drawings, the same elements have the same reference numerals.
図１は、ワイパー装置１、又は、ワイパー３と、固定装置５と、固定装置５によってワイパー３に固定された支持ヨーク（支持結合部）８を一端部に含むワイパーアーム７と、を備えるウィンドガラスワイパーを示している。 FIG. 1 shows a window including a wiper device 1 or a wiper 3, a fixing device 5, and a wiper arm 7 including a support yoke (support coupling portion) 8 fixed to the wiper 3 by the fixing device 5 at one end. A glass wiper is shown.
ワイパー３は、ワイパーブレード９と１つ又は複数の背骨部１１を特に有し、ここで、金属製のブレードの形態の１つの背骨部１１は、ワイパーがウィンドガラスに正確に当てられるようにする湾曲部をワイパー３に付与する。また、ワイパー３は、デフレクター、及び／又は、特にワイパーブレード９と背骨部１１とを一緒に保持する端部取付部を有していてもよい。 The wiper 3 in particular has a wiper blade 9 and one or more spine parts 11, where one spine part 11 in the form of a metal blade ensures that the wiper is correctly applied to the windshield. A curved portion is applied to the wiper 3. Further, the wiper 3 may have a deflector and / or an end attaching portion that holds the wiper blade 9 and the spine portion 11 together.
固定装置５は、一方側でワイパーアーム７によって支持されるアダプタ１３と、他方側でワイパー３に強固に固定されるコネクタ１５と、を有する。 The fixing device 5 includes an adapter 13 supported by the wiper arm 7 on one side and a connector 15 firmly fixed to the wiper 3 on the other side.
図２は、ワイパーアーム７によって支持されたアダプタ１３に、ピン１７（図３参照）を中心に回転可能に関節接合されたコネクタ１５のみを示している。 FIG. 2 shows only the connector 15 articulated to the adapter 13 supported by the wiper arm 7 so as to be rotatable around a pin 17 (see FIG. 3).
図３に示されるように、コネクタ１５は、ワイパー３に強固に固定されている。この目的のために、コネクタ１５は、２つの対称フランジ１９（図１及び２参照）を特徴としており、対称フランジ１９は、溝の形態で各フランジに設けられたハウジング２１の一方において、ワイパー３の背骨部１１の高さ位置でワイパー３を挟む。 As shown in FIG. 3, the connector 15 is firmly fixed to the wiper 3. For this purpose, the connector 15 is characterized by two symmetrical flanges 19 (see FIGS. 1 and 2), which are in the form of grooves in one of the housings 21 provided on each flange, in which the wiper 3 The wiper 3 is sandwiched at the height position of the spine portion 11.
図３では、ワイパー３の背骨部１１に配置された電気的要素２３も示され、これは、この例において、例えば抵抗器又は抵抗線の形態で作製される加熱要素２５である。 FIG. 3 also shows an electrical element 23 arranged on the spine 11 of the wiper 3, which in this example is a heating element 25 made, for example, in the form of a resistor or resistance wire.
電気的要素２３は、加熱要素としての正温度係数セラミックス、又は、測定センサ、例えばワイパー周辺のウィンドガラスの湿り又は乾燥状態を測定するための容量センサと同様のものであってもよい。 The electrical element 23 may be similar to a positive temperature coefficient ceramic as a heating element or a measurement sensor, for example a capacitive sensor for measuring the wet or dry state of the windshield around the wiper.
電力は、磁気誘導によって電気エネルギーを伝達することで、電気的要素２３に供給される。 Electric power is supplied to the electrical element 23 by transmitting electrical energy by magnetic induction.
この目的のために、図４に示されるように、支持ヨーク８は、送電コイル２７及び固定装置５を設けられ、ここで、コネクタ１５は、受電コイル２９を設けられている。 For this purpose, as shown in FIG. 4, the support yoke 8 is provided with a power transmission coil 27 and a fixing device 5, where the connector 15 is provided with a power reception coil 29.
したがって、送電コイル２７の受電コイル２９との協働は、磁気誘導によって電気的要素２３に電力を供給することを可能とする。 Therefore, the cooperation of the power transmission coil 27 with the power reception coil 29 enables electric power to be supplied to the electrical element 23 by magnetic induction.
送電コイル２７は、支持ヨーク８の下側面３１、つまりアダプタ１３を向く面に、配置されている。 The power transmission coil 27 is disposed on the lower surface 31 of the support yoke 8, that is, the surface facing the adapter 13.
受電コイル２９は、コネクタ１５の下側面３３、つまりワイパー３を向く面に、配置されている。 The power receiving coil 29 is disposed on the lower surface 33 of the connector 15, that is, the surface facing the wiper 3.
送電コイル２７及び受電コイル２９は、例えばのり付けによって固定されてもよい。 The power transmission coil 27 and the power reception coil 29 may be fixed by, for example, pasting.
図示されない変形によれば、送電コイル２７は、支持ヨーク８内にオーバーモールドされ、受電コイル２９は、コネクタ１５内にオーバーモールドされる。 According to a modification not shown, the power transmission coil 27 is overmolded in the support yoke 8, and the power reception coil 29 is overmolded in the connector 15.
例えば、送電コイル２７は、電気配線３５によって、自動車の電気的ネットワークに接続されている。 For example, the power transmission coil 27 is connected to an electrical network of an automobile by electrical wiring 35.
受電コイル２９は、その一部分で、電気配線３７によって、電気的要素２３に電気的に接続されている。 A part of the power receiving coil 29 is electrically connected to the electrical element 23 by an electrical wiring 37.
図示されない変形によれば、送電コイル２７は、加熱要素２５と一体の部分であり、つまり加熱要素２５は、例えば受電コイル２９として機能するためにコネクタ１５の高さ位置で巻かれた抵抗線の形態をとる。 According to a variant not shown, the power transmission coil 27 is an integral part of the heating element 25, i.e. the heating element 25 is for example a resistance wire wound at the height of the connector 15 in order to function as a power reception coil 29. Takes form.
更なる改良では、骨格部１１が、例えば、絶縁層の堆積によって、電気的に絶縁される、又は、電気的な絶縁に晒されるようになっており、加熱要素２５が、コネクタ１５の高さ位置で、骨格部１１にシルクスクリーンされており、シルクスクリーンパターンが、受電コイル２９として機能可能な巻回状と同一の形状とされている。 In a further refinement, the skeleton 11 is electrically insulated or exposed to electrical insulation, for example by depositing an insulating layer, so that the heating element 25 is at the height of the connector 15. At the position, the skeleton part 11 is silk-screened, and the silk-screen pattern has the same shape as a wound shape that can function as the power receiving coil 29.
送電コイル２７と受電コイル２９とのそれぞれが、支持ヨーク８及びコネクタ１５の高さ位置で一体化されるので、ワイパーの交換時に、ユーザは、ワイパー３の電気的な接続を考慮する必要がもはや無く、電気的な接続は、アダプタ１３とコネクタ１５との間の機械的固定が生じた際に自動的になされる。 Since each of the power transmission coil 27 and the power reception coil 29 is integrated at the height of the support yoke 8 and the connector 15, the user no longer needs to consider the electrical connection of the wiper 3 when replacing the wiper. Instead, the electrical connection is made automatically when a mechanical fixation between the adapter 13 and the connector 15 occurs.
